Dawoodi Bohra Forum

Alam, I agree with you the essence of subject is getting lost. Abusive language in a forum puts off the interest and especially if I return to the site after 2 days, I can't keep up with all reactions of opinions happened in these days.

Huzefa, which country do you live?

I do not want to prolong this discussion any further but I truly love qutbuddin shaheed Maula(Ra) and I would say this. I trust what Hasanji badshah and other leaders has narrated history. I don't need any justification. Argzeb who is so much caught up in his beliefs that he could not see the realit...

adna_mumin wrote:Spell out steps you took to be spiritual head since 2011, Bombay HC tells Syedna’s uncle

This is challenging for SKQ saheb. One can trust him based on the trust and faith but court and law looks with different eyes.

I spent some time on studying history on internet and following is my logical analysis: As I always stated in my earlier posts that history is full of contradictions, facts and contexts. On the contrary of this great praise in youtube video, AuZeb had comprised his policies (Fatawa-e-Alamgiri) and w...

It was Dai Dawood bin Qutubshah. My friend, history is full of contradictions ,facts and contexts. One can prove anything based on what he/she believes. As an example, Abdul Mutalib (AS) did not bother to save kaaba when king abrahat attacked kaaba. Ibrahim Nabi (swt) denied help from Jibraeel (as) ...

We used have healthy discussion and having good understanding and respect each other opinions. There is no hard feelings brother.

I am thankful to this conflict which has opened my eyes. Started reading Quraan translations, exploring other resources for knowledge, being more spiritual than traditional and most importantly being awakened.

Thanks for taking time and responding on this post. I always had conflict with my uncle who is in his 90s about his experiences and current teaching. He always have many questions and objections on current situations based on teachings of his time as I always had arguments on submission to the belie...

Rowajevu mooh banawe does not mean to showoff. If someone has feelings but can not cry, his sadness reflected on the face is acceptable. Btw, I even have heard similar kind of hadith from tahirul qadree lecture.

Rational_guy, Syedna Jafar bin Mansoor al Yaman was in the time of Mehdi immam to Moiz Imam. His most popular book is " Kitab e Alim Wa Ghulam".

Salaam and Jumoa Mubarak! Regarding the Whats App message, most of the people will follow that. This is good strategy by kothar to keep quite. As I mentioned in other post, the thoughts coming from belief is very powerful so it will be followed. People may completely close their eyes. I really hope ...

On extension of ur comments, the society where we live is based on belief. As you said, other cultural also having same issue of spiritual leader driving and controlling so its normal. Any one who goes against the flow is either hero or villain. That person is always gets judged based on belief boun...

Guys,
Please if possible stop abusing each other. Argumentive language is enough to give justifications. Islam is about all brotherhood and we should respect each other beliefs. My humble request to show some tolerance.

Brother Voice, I really appreciate your post. I am Dawoodi Bohra because I believe so. Its individual responsibility which changes the things otherwise nothing changes. Especially the Qur'an quotes very well applies to us. As Gandhi's famous quote "Be the change that you want to see in the worl...

If Reconciliation happens, I will be very curious to see how reformist takes stand. Is it gonna be based on mutual benefit or based on truth and justice? Ofcourse its gonna be personal choice.

Indeed it has happened repeatedly. Both party can give justifications and prove to be righteous. Life is now! Today when this is happening lets be open minded and use our intelligence and recognize the Truth. It would be a big mistake to focus on belief and emotional attachment to one party. Belief ...

15-Jan. This is very serious allegation. I hope you are not mistaken.

After reading the philosophy and vision of fatemidawat.com, I thought this is what I always have dreamed of ideal bohra doctrine and natural path of the deen. Based on current dawoodi bohra belief system, some of the principles doesn't seems to fit, so either Khuzaima saheb is attracting progressive...

Bhai lionplayer, Very well written article. Of course, “what’s your thoughts are, you become”. Thought can create invention, revolution, success, failure, peace, war, construction and destruction and etc... Here Intention is the key. With a thought of freedom, Gandhi led the movement which brought t...

Half glass, full or empty: This episode was very well handled diplomatically by Burhanuddin Maula (RA). Which raises a question Half glass full or empty?

James: Being righteous for belief is different than being righteous on TRUTH (HAQQ)

I have used a word "Justification" which is not appropriate. The correct word is "Being Righteous"

James, This belief is imposed, not realized. Not everyone feels that. If you feel it by heart (not by beliefs) good for you. If its by heart, its related with Imaan and you would never have to be righteous for that. But based on your comments, you are working hard to be righteous instead of making p...

This actually shows how powerful this person (Hussain Hiptullah) is with influence on Yusuf Najmuddin, Mufaddal Mola and Busaheba. Very intersting!

I completly agree with humanbeing. Why to redicule, abuse and discourage someone who is speaking his opinion. Put your argument against not aggression.

Alambhai, If truth is relative and each of us is free to our interpretations, then there will be chaos in the society. Every rapist, murderer, exploiter will have his version of the "truth", which by your logic will have to be accepted and condoned. By the same logic, the exploitation of ...

Alam bhai, What a thoughtful answer and thanks to you both. Smart, I was in so much of in my thought process and this kind of questions when puts forth, its creates emotional turbulence. Context is needed for person to understand where some one is coming from and what are the intentions. For example...

Fatemidawat website has new updates

In my opinion,
1. There may be many ways to look at this. May be your argument is true in some context so not denying on this but its not always true.
2. Context of not carrying weapon is different than displaying as a cultural activity.
